yep I'll be going. Good luck with the crested search, unless you know of someone selling before hand it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack Laughing Embarassed

Sorry if this is a stupid question scott but are you being sarcastic or are cresties not popular at hamm.

Nope, not being sarcastic Shocked Embarassed Laughing

Seriously there is a BIG shortage on crested geckos, even in Europe. I only ever see a handfull of cresteds in Hamm, normally males and normally single colour brown or grey ones.

Of course you may get lucky but with 8000 people pushing & shoving and no way of knowing what table might have them it's pure luck Wink

damn, Im only going for cresties and uroplatus so i guess it will be uroplatus for me then and there probably going to be even harder to find if you dont know someone who taking some. i might get a few other things if the price is right.

As Scott says, cresties are hard to find, its rare to see more than one or two across hundreds of stalls, and these are sometimes expensive. I was quoted 175 euros for a very plain male a couple of years or so ago...
